I like to burn on travel 🙂

No beds available at hospital next door. Ain’t going anywhere anytime soon…

Stuck at three conversions for the month, sad!

Madoff croaked, not sad.

Earn and BURN. Yes, burn! Cashing out UR at1.25/1.5c/point is the best thing that happened to the HOBBY. Nobody should be sitting on 4M+ points!!!!

Can’t wait for the credit card pumpers posing as travel experts to post “69 reasons I love this Southwest card”…

Just told my daughter yesterday how much her Southwest points were worth…LOL

Lol…

Hope they do not 1099 if you win an amount that translates to less than $600 even with that ridiculous valuation. I am not there yet.

No blog post tomorrow, but will try Thursday. Got way deep into client tax work the past few days but do have lots of material and it will be hard to pick the ones that will make it in the next blog post.

Moron in the OMAAT post in the comments made fun of my blog that only two people read it. Actually, after a long time, two subscribed to get each post via email and I think they came from OMAAT lol. Some type of aviation expert having no clue about the Everglades airport you all learned about here six months ago

Dan says AA will send a 1099 based on a value per AA mile of 2.25 cents@.

I have a call into Doug Parker. Deal of the year: AA can have all my AA miles for the low, low price of 2 cents@.

I mean, so many experts out there smh…

I doubt my comment will survive there, can you guys enlighten his readers and get them to the other side so we can convert them to educated TBBers, thanks!

Play this game, you will win at least 40 AA miles and reset:

On the AA game, I just want 5 AAdvantage miles in each of our accounts to reset the (worst in class) 18 month expiration clock.

I am a simple man, leading a simple life.

Oh, and to get to Paris to visit me, here’s a guide on the best way for Americans right now:

WeWork pretended to be a technology company. Was more like a cult. As a “real estate” company it would have had a chance. But it’s hard to raise $5B+ as a RE company. Someone else may be successful in a pandemic free world.

People who use WeWork (inc me, I am typing this is one) really like WeWork.

The users like it, which puts it well ahead of most over-hyped growth companies. The business model, of course, sucks as Regus / IWG found out 20 years ago when they almost went bust in the recession.

WeWork is just Regus with funkier wallpaper, glass walled rather than fully closed off offices and free beer. This is actually enough to allow it to kick IWG into the sand, but it isn’t more than that.
